" FACTS AEE CHIELS THAT WINNA DING, AND DAURNA BE DISPUTED."-Bubss. rpiMES change, and with them manX ners and tastes The unimpeachable evidence of statistics of trade tell us> that people readily appreciate a good and pure article in preference to a dear and inferior one. This has never been so clearly demonstrated as in tbe records of the Customhouse In 1885 Ceylon Tea made its first appearance in New Zealand That year the total quantity imported from all sources was 4,442,6671 b, of which China supplied 2,487,66 1 ib, or 60^ per cent. India supplied 150,6141 b, or 3$ per cent. Cbtlon supplied 4931 b, 0r 001 percent That INSIGNIFICANT MITLB BUIPMKNT <o this colony was so appreciated that people asked for more- nnd got it 5 years later (1890) the imports stood thus : — China supplied 976.2401 b, or 25i por cent India supplied 657,9021 b. or 17 per cent Ceylon supplied 363,137°. or 9| P-c The total imports for that year from all sources were 3 849,1051 b, It was this year that Suratnra Tea was introdnced, and became a boon and a blessing to humanity. How it has established itself in the homis of the people may be seen by the manner in which it has distanced all rivals, and materially assisted to dr:"ve China teas out of consumption, In 1896 China supplied 58,9411b,0r 1£ per cent. India supplied 9u2,6461b, or 2O£ percent. Ciilon supplied 2,310,4151 b, or 55£ per cent. No other article of domestic consump* tion can show anything approaching this. Suratura Tea is picked and packed in Ceylon, thereby preserving its freshness and aroma until it reaches the consumer — which accounts for its economy and purity. Suratara Tea is NOT blended with India or ChiDaTeaa. MONEY TO LEND on approved Freehold Securities at Lowest Bates of Interest.
